    Mail from Great Britain to Greece 1868: Cover sent unpaid from London to Patras endorsed 'via Marseille', one side flap missing, struck with London despatch datestamp (June 4), with Calais transit and struck with rare Anglo French Convention marking "F. 54" in black (Van der Linden fig. 1192) in Paris, franked on arrival with 1862/67 80 l. carmine on rose and 1871/72 10 l. orange and 20 l. deep blue tied by 'Patras' datestamps (June 1, julian) with corresponding '110' (lepta) in red crayon alongside - rate of 110 lepta for a letter under 7½ grams from France. Ironed file folds through 80 lepta but a very scarce entire.rnrnNote: A strange anomaly in rates: the 1868 cover above was charged 110 lepta via Marseilles for a letter up to 7½ grams. However, if sent via Brindisi the same letter would have been charged 90 lepta for a letter up to 10 grams. The second route was, therefore, used more frequently.
